FairCom Database provides advanced AES encryption at rest when enabled. Encryption requires defining a master key which should be kept as secure as possible. The master key must be presented at FairCom DB startup allowing access to encrypted data. A challenge is in securely presenting this key to a server for the best of unattended operation. FairCom DB includes functionality to make this as flexible as possible. One method is storing keys in an external mechanism such as Amazon AWS Secrets Manager®, However, application providers may want direct control over key management. FairCom DB provides a callback mechanism allowing access to any external key store as defined by the application vendor.
A tutorial is provided in the ReadMe titled FairCom Callbacks Tutorials.
